    I liked him on the Pirates and was happy when the Mets got him. RIP Later

    I tend to agree with Kate (whoever she is) on the rookie and bullpen issues but definitely not on the "tossing players under the bus" issue. That said, I'm not losing any sleep about his firing and looking forward to finding fault with the next manager. Later

    He jump started his career when started throwing the knuckleball. And, like many successful Knuckleballers (a short list), he pitched into his 40s. RIP Later

    Win one last one for the Buck-a-roo. And then we'll have another manager to criticize. Later

    Francisco earned himself a few votes yesterday. I hope he ends up in at least the top 5. Later

    They should have saved some runs from the first game. Later

    Let's keep the merry-go-round moving. Later

    OY! But I can't get used to Trevor Gott. Later
  9. MFS62
    I can get used to that! Later

    I just saw a replay. Nice diving catch by the squirrel. But the look on his face when he threw it in was priceless. Later

    Starling Marte officially done for the year. When will it be time to start a "Starling Marte is still done" thread? Later

    Edgy MD wrote: It was a big deal for Mantle fans — at least it's remembered as such. Strange that the in-the-moment coverage didn't note it. IIRC, I read during his last years that he and his fans were afraid that if he didn't finish his career at .300, some voters wouldn't vote him to the Hall of Fame. The .300 career average was a magic number for entry back then. And players who didn't have it were looked down upon by some of the old time members and writers. Later

    Lost 0-10. That's all she wrote. Drive home safely. See ya' next year. Later

    The Ponies are down 6-0 facing elimination from the championship if they lose. (they're down 0-1 in the series) Get those rally hats on, guys. Later
  16. MFS62
    Significant enough for us to remember? Was it a crucial game when he didn't get a hit with the winning runs in scoring position? Later
  17. MFS62
    Didn't everybody used to hit .339 in the Mexican League? BTW-great work, Cowtipper. Later

    When I checked earlier today, Philly weather showed a window when the rain will let up between 3 and 6. Might get it in. Later

    Doesn't Buck realize that Alvarez is three homers away from a Johnny Bench record for homers by a 21 year old catcher? He may have fallen out of the ROY race, but I think the kid deserves a shot, especially in a band box like this place. And if he gets them, the publicity could put him back into the ROY race. Later

She didn't react but her boyfiend said in a very New York accent, "Hey, whadda you, a Red Sox fan?" I have stopped doing that. I didn't realize bleacher creature were allowed to travel. Were they in restraints? Anyhow, enjoy your trip. Later

    And with that, your October beyond 10/1 is free. Sadly, I "win" this contest, too. I think I was the only CPF-er who predicted they wouldn't make the playoffs. I also won the "where each free agent is going to sign" contest, and I'm still waiting for my prize for that one . Now, if I could only pick wining lottery numbers ... (sigh) Later

    When not playing baseball, Rowdey Jordan sounds like someone who will be entering the bronc riding contest at the next rodeo. My daughter works with Trey McLaughlin's mother. They went to a game when Binghamton came to Hartford. I was hoping for a scouting report but Trey didn't get into the game. Later

    Now 3-2 Phrigging Phills. A three run dinger for JT. Later

  25. MFS62
    =kcmets post_id=138024 time=1695404719 user_id=53] I'm fine with Buck for one more year. If the Mets suck at the all-star break in '24 kick his sorry millionaire ass to the curb and bring in Bartolo.
